Table View Cell

I want to add a slide to my table cell. Is it possible to make the cell to move left and that return by itself? I want it to look like a refresh gesture in Facebook app but for a single cell.

in cellForRowAtIndex path you can add a swipe gesture:

UISwipeGestureRecognizer *gesture = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]
                                             initWithTarget:self action:@selector(swipeOccurredIn:)];
[gesture setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight];
[cell addGestureRecognizer:gesture];

then implement the method you specified in the selector to handle the swipe:

- (void)swipeOccurredIn:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {    

        NSLog(@"%d = %d",recognizer.direction,recognizer.state);
}

Im not sure about animating the cell on the swipe though. thats going to be the hard part

here is something that might work for you. its a custom tableView cell class for swiping
